I've got one better than you - the double L.

It takes up even less space than an inverted L with one
elevated radial, and has the point of maximum current
much higher above ground.

In ASCII art, they look like this:

Mine consists of a little less than 260' of THHN wire.
I have a choke balun at the feedpoint.

I'll mail you the NEC file off list, since the list eats
attachments.  My NEC file has very poor ground, since that's
what I have here in New Hampshire.  You may want to modify
the ground to be a little better.
